Infiltration washing
Infiltrate the detergent inside the cloth to detach the dirt off the cloth fiber.
The detergent dissolves sufficiently to become the high-concentration detergent that washes the
laundry in infiltration mode for easier detachment of dirt off the cloth fiber.
The number next to the sign is the page number for detailed description.
Please use concentrated powder detergent to wash.
The infiltration washing can't be performed to the processes of "WOOL", "BLANKET" and "TUB CLEAN". (Because of no
detergent dissolution course in these processes)
( )
It's an economic mode of drying without heating.
May be used to dry the heat-irresistible swimsuit or the underwear containing the amino heat-insulation materials.
Keep room free of mugginess for causing no temperature rise.
Control the black mildew.
The drying capacity can be as high as 1.5kg.
1.5kg
The duration is irrelevant to the dryness level for applying the preset mode of drying.
Please read "USER MANUAL" carefully for proper operation.(
